| Summary: | The Burgundians became part of the Roman Empire before it collapsed as a political system in the West. Therefore, in terms of civilisation and political organisation Burgundy appears to have been more Roman than other parts of Gaul. This can be demonstrated by a survey of the mints in the different regions and a comparison of their number. In Burgundy, most of the places of lower rank were not mentioned on the coins. That’s why we can assume that the fragmentation of the city-states did not go as far as in other Gaulish regions, where the cities had remained independent for some time after the end of the Western Roman Empire. |
